Well, it's official. I'm hooked. I picked up a 2nd 29-gallon tank today and I don't even have fish in the first one yet and all the accessories to the 10-gallon are in a crate on the front porch waiting to be cleaned. I really couldn't help myself. It was such a good deal. I drove for an hour in really hot weather in my old convertible which has no top and stuffed it with the tank, stand, hood, power filter, other accessories and a 5-gallon bucket of gravel! Now I have to rearrange the bedroom to accomodate it. It is going to be a lot of work and I'm actually quite enthused about it.

This one will be quite different from the living room tank. I intend to get serious about live plants and doing something a bit more exotic in my selection of fish. I guess I'd better learn how to take good pics of my tanks and how to post them here. Meanwhile, I'm on the learning curve regarding growing plants well. I'll let you guys know how it's going.
